The Zos bait and switch - you don't have to grind out this skill line for all characters, but you will if you want to use it 😂

MY UNSPOKEN THOUGHT EXACTLY.
@vladimirwoodchester261619 күн бұрын
I farmed 50 for the force pulse achievement from nodes. As a veteran crafter/materials harvester, let me just say, the drop rate needs to be adjusted. I have a route I use when I gold out gear or make pots and I’m efficient at it. This achievement took way too long. Furthermore, if you test ability morphs and have to swap your scripts around.. horrible. This game is a hard grind and this is absurd. 1 ink is 30-70k and more than a small stack of Columbine. C’mon now lol

Ink drops do make a sound, it's sorta similar to water sources so not the easiest to hear.

if that's true, ZOS needs to turn the dial to 11.

I think they have some code in there to limit the drops if you already have some ink. I had no inks, used it all up, and was running the Alik'r dolmen train and suddenly noticed I was getting inks quite often from both the regular drops and the chests. Once I had accumulated 10 inks it completely stopped. I still have those 10 inks and tried running the train for a while yesterday, not a single drop.
@ExplorationGamingESO19 күн бұрын
interesting theory...especially since the ink moves to the craft bag and is account wide.
@TheRealReTox19 күн бұрын
@@ExplorationGamingESO It's just what I noticed. I was getting ink doing the dolmen run and then it stopped, haven't gotten any ink in a couple days now, anywhere. Went and did a group dungeon solo, nothing. Got some decent loot but not a single ink in sight.
@StephanieGreen-cn6jj19 күн бұрын
I had ink drop from a boss yesterday. However, since the 'fix' to make them drop from bosses, the drop rate from nodes has plummeted for me. This means I need to keep my inks instead of selling some of them. Prior to the 'fix' I was getting around 3 from approx 400 nodes now it's 1 or none.

Hey Marko, thx as always. I’m lucky and can’t complain as I even haven’t started scribing 😅 Maybe I should wait, but keep your tips in mind. EU Server, on PST, prices are around 27 k for ink.
@ExplorationGamingESO19 күн бұрын
My original advice to people was to do the quests and dailies and wait on the entire scribing fiasco...I'm just doing scribing-related videos because people are asking so many questions about the new system.

You need to have done the netch story line...... Well so did i think, i was looking for the wandering Minotaur warparty (WB) , when i harvested a resource node and there it was 2x ink a little puzzled i went back to the scolarium and only the Indrick and the Dragon was added to the skill crafting bench. Thought it was worth mentioning glad for the ink though, i play on PS EU server.
@ExplorationGamingESO19 күн бұрын
was this an alt character you were on? Once you finish the quests with 1 character, you only need to finish the 2nd era of scribing with all alternates to be eligible for the drops.
